[Clint]

Cheers poached
I fully expect to travel to get car.....
I was of the same opinion myself about the modded one....... not sure it'd be the perfect family car.
I've driven Gti Mk5 beffore..... love them, my mate has mint 07 plate, borrowed that a few times and now i'm hooked ...... love the fact its a great family car AND nutty boy racer machine ;-)

Why would his missus need a fully sorted Stage 2 GTI?  Seems odd and if they are family of racers you know it's gonna be easier to put back to OEM and sell parts on to make the money back. JMO
